1599 Geneva Bible
16 Their daily portion: beside their generation, being males [a]from three years old and above, even to all that entered into the house of the Lord to their office in their charge, according to their courses:
17 Both to the generation of the Priests after the house of their fathers, and to the Levites from twenty years old and above, according to their charge in their courses:
18 And to the generation of all their children, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters throughout all the Congregation: for by their [b]fidelity are they partakers of the holy things.
